20ft & 40ft Shipping Container Rental in Alexandria, Egypt — Routes to and from Russia

We lease shipping containers at the ports of Alexandria and El Dekheila (Egypt) to support two-way cargo operations between Egypt and Russia. This is a key trade lane that demands strict compliance with temperature and sanitary requirements.

At our yards in both Egypt and Russia, we always have equipment ready for loading:

• 20DC — standard 20-foot dry containers (ideal for grain, lumber, and heavy machinery)

• 40DC — standard 40-foot dry containers

• 20HC / 40HC — high-cube containers with extra capacity (perfect for textiles and ceramics)

• Reefer containers — with a valid Pre-Trip Inspection (PTI) certificate, ready for citrus, frozen vegetables, and fruit

Important: We have a strict no-As-Is policy. Every container we lease is guaranteed to be watertight, free of foreign odors, and fully equipped with working hardware — critical for passing phytosanitary inspections.

How to Rent a Container

1. Choose. Tell your account manager the route (Egypt → Russia or Russia → Egypt) and the type of cargo.

2. Sign. We execute a one-way lease agreement at a fixed rate.

3. Pay. We accept wire transfers in USD or RUB (at the Central Bank of Russia exchange rate).

4. Load. The container is delivered to your warehouse, CFS, or terminal (Alexandria Port / El Dekheila) for stuffing.

Who Benefits from Container Rental on the Egypt ↔ Russia Lane?

🇪🇬 ➔ 🇷🇺 Exports from Egypt to Russia

Citrus and Frozen Food Suppliers

Egypt is the largest supplier of oranges, lemons, and frozen vegetables (potatoes, strawberries) to Russia. We provide reefer containers (Carrier, Thermo King) with a valid PTI certificate and adjustable ventilation settings, ensuring smooth phytosanitary clearance in Vladivostok or Novorossiysk.

Textile and Ceramics Exporters

For bulky but lightweight cargo, we offer 40HC dry containers in IICL condition. They are guaranteed to be dry and clean, eliminating the risk of mold on fabric or tile breakage during transit through the Suez Canal.

🇷🇺 ➔ 🇪🇬 Exports from Russia to Egypt

Grain and Sunflower Oil Suppliers

Egypt is one of the largest importers of Russian wheat and vegetable oil. For these commodities, we provide 20DC and 40DC containers that have been specially cleaned and inspected to food-grade standards: no rust, no odors, no residue from previous cargoes.

Lumber and Fertilizer Exporters

For heavy or challenging cargo, we supply containers in CW and IICL condition with reinforced flooring and verified locking mechanisms — built to withstand high humidity and aggressive environments.

🚛 Logistics Companies and Freight Forwarders

Equipment shortages at Alexandria's ports or Russian hubs are a recurring challenge. Our one-way lease program lets you load a container in one country and drop it off empty at a partner depot in the other (for example, in Novorossiysk or Moscow), completely eliminating the cost and logistical nightmare of repositioning empties back through the Suez Canal.

Why Choose Us for Container Rental?

Special Repositioning Rates (One-Way Lease)

We offer exclusive pricing because shipping lines benefit from moving equipment between these two markets. You pay a fixed rate — we handle the equipment balance.

Expertise at Alexandria and El Dekheila Ports

We know both terminals inside and out: Alexandria Port is better suited for general cargo and reefer operations, while El Dekheila specializes in bulk cargo in containers (grain, fertilizers, lumber). We will position the equipment exactly where it works best for you.

Quality Guarantee (NEW, IICL, CW)

Every container passes a thorough inspection. Reefers must have a valid PTI report; dry containers are checked for light-tightness and floor integrity.

Container Rental Rates for Egypt Shipments (One-Way Lease)
